7.2.5.4 Rout = Filter Routing < 000-003 >
The filter routing switches between pure sample playback and filtered playback.
Routing = <000>: No filter, no metal noise. Only sample playback through the analog
final VCA.
Routing = <001>: Low Pass + metal noise. The sample is mixed to metal noise (if
activated), led through the filter and played back through the analog final VCA.
Routing = <002>: high pass + metal noise.
Routing = <003>: band pass + metal noise.

7.2.6.4 NtNz = Metal Noise < 000-127 >
The parameter changes the noise to a metallic noise which consists of periodic
asyncronous bit patterns.
With <000> the noise generator is turned off, <001> yields a static random noise
(white noise). On values above that <2-127>, a complex signal formed from digital
multitones and bit patterns is produced. Each value represents a unique sound pattern
which doesn't smoothly change across the range but jumps to various sounds one by
one. Metallic Noise yields a rather aperiodic signal which results in noise-like sounds but
with tone-like structures within.
